I had a problem with querying the data in the tutorial that pymongo couldn't find any firetask with label. Wondering where went wrong?

from atomate.vasp.database import VaspCalcDb
from pymatgen.electronic_structure.plotter import DosPlotter, BSPlotter
PATH_TO_MY_DB_JSON = '/path/to/db.json'
atomate_db = VaspCalcDb.from_db_file(PATH_TO_MY_DB_JSON)
line_bs_entry = atomate_db.collection.find_one({'task_label': 'nscf line', 'formula_pretty': 'MgO'})

Return None, but the workflow is there and calculation has finished. If I try,

line_bs_entry = atomate_db.collection.find_one()

return

Hi Zezhong

It looks like you are querying the wrong database. It seems your path/to/db.json right now likely contains credentials to connect to your "FireWorks" database, and the "workflows" collection.

You want to instead connect to the "tasks" collection in whatever database you have set up to store tasks.

Dear Anubhav,

You are right! The credentials was indeed directed to the “workflow” collection instead of “tasks” collection. Many thanks for your kind help!

After assigning the right collection, I can finally finish the tutorial.

Looking forward to getting work started!

Cheers,

Zezhong
